I think it's a great idea and I like him a whole lot better than Salazar (even though I have no say in the matter)...

I'm not compasonate towards anyone so the statement sure didn't include me.

Make your own way in this world or quit taking up space in the planet.

"I include the Canadian border. Lots of Muslims there to slip into Detroit... their American mecca."

It may be, but far less egregious than the obvious NON enforcement of the Mexican Border of millions. Now we have Gangs like MS-13 to worry about as well.

"McCain will not go democrat, as per DH."

I'd say it's 50/50. It's the meglomaniac's best shot.

He was on the fence last year.

For some reason you keep running from the question: if you make a mutual promise with someone that both of you depend on, and the other guy breaks it, you still consider yourself obligated to him?

Kind of ironic that you're dishonestly avoiding it in an attempt to paint someone else as dishonest.

I agree with your DH. McCain won't go Dim. If Hillary manages to steal the Dim nomination, McCain would likely be seen as the guy to beat her, then become the Republican nominee and probably win the presidency by merely being the lesser of two jackasses.

It's that Joisey accent of yours! For years, a schoolmate of mine whose mother was from New England, thought IDEA was pronounced and spelled IDEAR! LOL!

I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in your imaginary hypothetical situations. If you'd like to make your ethical dilemma somewhat more concrete by explaining who it is Lil' Tommy made his mutual promise with, and the details of how it all worked out, we can talk. Until then, I see no reason to entertain what appears thus far to be a fantasy.

It wasn't a bilateral agreement. Tancredo made a unilateral promise to the electorate at large and then junked it for the sake of power because SOME of his constituents wanted him to. That's the same logic politicians from both democracies and dictatorships use to stay in power --- "the people want me to". Lame, really, and proof that Tom is just another cynical pol. OK, fine -- if you are just another cynical pol, at least get some useful legislation passed to help solve problems rather than be a useless gadfly.

... perhaps with someone such as Tancredo at its helm.

You'd like that, huh?

Its called a campaign, Reagan Embarrassment.

I crticize Ford on a daily basis also. GM and Chrysler also stink. I do, however, wear a Republican cloth coat.

... But I guess allowing an unfettered illegal invasion is just more "strategery," right?

More insults from the divisive gallery. Deceitful, too, but what the hey ...
